Chalk it Up!

“Chalk It Up!” began with 3 children drawing in front of their mother’s store. It has blossomed into one of the most beloved and endearing events that our town has to offer. Celebrating the 26th Annual “Chalk It Up!” in July 2022, this fun annual event brings 150 artists of all ages draw along the sidewalks of downtown Hendersonville, competing for prizes but also just to have a good time! This great contest was designed to promote Hendersonville as “a city with a heart for art.” You can register to participate or just come downtown to see the lovely — but temporary — art.

“Chalk It Up” winners’ prizes are from the generous donations of the downtown merchants as well as area restaurants.
